Curious Jane

The recent form tells a familiar story for many horses at this stage of their career: a sixth-place finish most recently, then a ninth, followed by two fifth-place runs. The placing came earlier in the sequence, and since then it has been a run of unplaced efforts. Yet there are signs of consistency in that recent form — two fifths and a sixth suggest the horse is competitive in the races it is being entered for, even if it cannot quite find its way past the post first. With zero wins from eight attempts, Curious Jane is being hunted hard by the yard who know the horse has something to offer.

Murphy's yard has been in good form this season with eighteen winners to its name, so the horse is getting the benefit of a trainer in decent working order. At three years old, Curious Jane still has time to develop, and horses often find that elusive first win when everything aligns just right. For now, the game continues — back on the track just a day ago, this horse is being kept active and given regular opportunities to break through.
